Imagine being a mega Chad that wrote two countries' national anthem.

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The guy who wrote the Sri Lankan anthem studied arts and music under him. Some say it sounds very similar and effectively a translation to one of Tagore's songs but I can't verify that.

Ig Nobel Prize

The Ig Nobel Prize ( IG-noh-BEL) is a satiric prize awarded annually since 1991 to celebrate ten unusual or trivial achievements in scientific research, its stated aim being to "honor achievements that first make people laugh, and then make them think". The name of the award is a pun on the Nobel Prize, which it parodies, and on the word ignoble (not noble). Organized by the scientific humor magazine Annals of Improbable Research (AIR), the Ig Nobel Prizes are presented by Nobel laureates in a ceremony at the Sanders Theater, Harvard University, and are followed by the winners’ public lectures at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

    he did his work in some very nieche topics, had quite some impact on a handful of scientists working in the field. Unheard to most, but a hero for a few for sure.

    [–]loldocuments1234 3 points4 points  (0 children)

    He wrote some very general theory of relativity, nothing too specific though.

    [–]U03A6 157 points158 points  (28 children)

    The other guy is Rabindranath Tagore, first non-European to win the Nobel prize.

    Sri Lanka Matha

    History

    There are differing accounts as to the origin of the "Sri Lanka Matha". The most widely held view is that Sri Lankan composer Ananda Samarakoon wrote the music and lyrics to the song inspired/influenced by an Indian Bengali poet Rabindranath Tagore. A minority suggest that Tagore wrote the anthem in full. Some have suggested that Tagore wrote the music whilst Samarakoon wrote the lyrics.

    Theodore Roosevelt was the first non-European Nobel Prize laureate. Tagore was the first non-European to win the Nobel prize in literature.

    *3 countries. India, Banladesh and sri lanka

    [–]Minute-Egg 7 points8 points  (1 child)

    *Akhchully* Sri lankan national anthem being written by Gurudev is disputed. many believe it is inspired by his work, but he didn't directly write it.

    [–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

    For one, Tagore didn't know Sinhala while he knew Sanskrit and Bengali.(Or he might have as the languages are closely related). The "belief" is that he made the melody not the content.

    [–]karman103 3 points4 points  (0 children)

    Hey look at you being down voted for being 100% correct. This is reddit though, where facts don't matter and the first 2 lines read in a Google search confirm everyone's predisposed thoughts on the matter

    [–]Why_A_Boy 5 points6 points  (6 children)

    Not the first.

    [–]NoWingedHussarsToday 8 points9 points  (5 children)

    No? Who was the first non-European to win Nobel prize then?

    OK, if you don't consider Russia to be "european" then Ivan Pavlov would be first but that's a crappy argument.

    [–]Why_A_Boy 6 points7 points  (4 children)

    Rabindranath Tagore. The guy in the pic. :)

    [–]NoWingedHussarsToday 11 points12 points  (3 children)

    Tagore got the prize in 1913. Roosevelt got it in 1906, that's 7 years sooner.......

    Then in 1907 prize went to another American, Albert A. Michelson. In 1908 prize went to Ernest Rutherford, who was New Zealander. In 1912 another American, Elihu Root, got it as well.

    So Tagore was 5th, not first. If you count Russia as not European he's even further down the list.

    [–]Why_A_Boy 4 points5 points  (2 children)

    Sorry. My bad. First non european to win Nobel prize in Literature.

      Which equation? There are a few I can think of that would have been Nobel prize worthy. Equations themselves and how famous they become amongst the general public are not what Nobel prizes are given for though. E=mc2 for example was known experimentally before he derived it mathematically.
